No one gear excells in all points. Onerepresents the highest capacity; another thehighest percentage of absorption; anotherthe highest degree of smoothness of tabulation, Fig. 69, has been pre-pared on the basis of the following rela-tive weights or percentages for the severalphases of gear performance: Capacity 50 points Smoothness of action 15 points Closing pressure 5 points Absorption 15 points Over-solid sturdiness 10 points Workmanship and General operation 5 points Total 100 points The gradings on the above basis are ma
